It's gross that this has a person's first name. How dehumanizing that will be for real Devins as this kind of thing becomes productized. How tempting to compare yourself to a "teammate" your employer pays a cloud tenant

> 3. Why does iOS not even have radio buttons? iOS has tables. A table is a single column of complex cells that usually fills the screen. Cells can be divided into sections or not divided. The Settings app is almost entirely tables; so i

That's a mistake I've made before, except we did have nightly backups. I was not the one who set up the backups, nor did I perform the restore. I just told my senior I made a big mistake, and he said thanks for saying so right awa

There's a moment early in Resident Evil 7 VR where you're up to your neck in water in a tight space. You completely fool yourself, you feel the mass of water on your chest, and you start breathing like you're in a pool.

In iOS 18, there is now a SwiftUICore framework that's separate from SwiftUI, which I imagine consumes it. I don't see the new one on the documentation site. If that becomes public in a year or so, maybe you'd be able to repl

Great idea! Please let the text wrap. My phone is narrow and I want to read it. How it looks may not match your intent: https://ibb.co/R0PCj16

I don't think that—I think it's not an attack specifically against my account.

I'm glad this is news, because it means I was probably affected by a mistake and not a specific attack. Nonetheless you can't go spooking your users like this.

I think you mistake my point: Iceland's culture _is_ perpetually endangered, more than most. These steps appear necessary for them, they appear to work, and even 100x larger countries whose cultures would survive anyway do some amount

Globalization risks blurring cultural distinctions away. Among cultures we're aware of on the world stage, Iceland punches above their weight class—they have only one member for every thousand Americans. I have to think their success i

This used to happen back when phones could only keep a few apps backgrounded at a time, but I haven't seen iOS kill the most recently used background app since the first couple years backgrounding was supported at all. But then, apps i

I used this often for diagrams before repository sites' Markdown renderers started to support Mermaid. Nice tool; easy and fast. Can be a bit fiddly to make changes, depending on how much you care about neatness.

That and there are two major chips, the R1 and M2, acting as distinct heat sources. I don't know if they would spin the fans up and down independently, but the two chips' heat output could differ over time.

I confirm that experience. The first iPad in particular only got a couple years of updates. https://iosref.com/ipados I don't really regret those purchases, but that's me. I was an early adopter, not a regular cus

Would you be open to illustrating in general terms what your situation is like?

Last year, I puzzled over how to watch my local sports team of choice and got mired in questions about streaming services and local blackouts and licensing. Then I bought a ten dollar antenna for my TV.

OK, but I notice you're still using apostrophes in all their accepted right places, and I assume that's because you intend to accommodate me and other readers who haven't discarded the rules and would still trip. Earnestly, t

What's the word for the vision equivalent of misophonia?

The problem is not that it's confusing but that, because the rules exist and set our expectations, we mentally trip over violations of them. We stop absorbing what was intended to be communicated and have to back up and try again. I do

I think we'd all be gladly sitting atop high abstractions like that if not for the fact that brands pay the bills, and brands want custom experiences. Website and app design often begins with "what does a button look like," a

I think most of what we've built is made of too many parts. I think it's partly because we no longer make the same thing a thousand times, refining it as we go. We don't reduce software to its essence like we did with common

I value this method; my strategy is to turn my display brightness down to nothing while drafting. If I think I mistyped something, I just type a line break and go again.

So's a video game, and we call that "real-time 3D". Time is mentioned, but it isn't counted again as a dimension, perhaps because any given momentary view is a time slice, not a time range like it is an XYZ range.

If you had to pick one game to ever play, Descent is a great one.
